All-Points-Bulletin from “Dredge the Harbor” Campaign – Pillar Point Harbor:

Local community activist and surfer Brian Overfelt has invited the Half Moon Bay community to attend a critical meeting of key decision-makers over the campaign to dredge the Pillar Point Harbor and re-nourish the beaches south of the harbor, including Surfer’s Beach and Miramar. Local supporters are requested to arrive for a meet-and-greet with the decision makers from 8:30 a.m. Tuesday in the lobby of the Oceana Hotel in Princeton, ahead of what is now an open-door meeting with the public that will include Senators Barbara Boxer and Dianne Feinstein, and Congresswoman Anna Eshoo. Representatives from the Army Corps of Engineers, CalTrans, Farallones and Monterey Marine Sanctuaries, the San Mateo Harbor District, Audubon Society and Save The Waves, among others, will be attending this historic meeting. A strong showing of community support to rally behind this cause would dramatically help to save our local beaches from ongoing erosion that threatens to destroy property, the highway and our way of life. Most importantly, this will hopefully make the area a safer place for our kids to surf, with more beach, more consistent sand bars and waves.
